Written by Jax. Pics courtesy of DonnayGuyver II comes in the same packaging as the previous Guyver Figures in the Max Factory BFC line. I like this packaging alot because it makes the toy appear more high end.
All accessories can be seen from through the clear window of the packaging.
Guyver II and I are the two Guyver Figures that come with the Unactivated G-Units.
As usual, Guyver II comes with interchangable ultra high frequency blades and interchangable fists, grab (for holding the megasmasher open) and a New part that looks something like a claw. This is different from Guyvers I and III which come with the open palm.
Other then that, it comes with the display stand which is included in all Guyver Action Figures in this Max Factory BFC series.
The paint job is perfect in the Max Factory Guyver Series. Even in small areas on the face the paint job is perfect, flawless.
Eyes come with a certain reflective paint so under certain angles of lighting they seem to be glowing slightly.
The Guyver II action figure is one of my favourite in this toy line. I like the fact that it is made to scale so if you line up Guyvers I II and III you will find that Guyver II is the tallest of the three.This gives the whole Max Factory Bio Fighter Collection Line more anime accuracy and more variations. Its not one of those toy lines where moulds are recycled for similar figures. Every toy figure in this line is unique.
I love the design of Guyver II's face. He is the only Guyver that has an asymetrical face with two air vents on the right and two sonic orbs on the left.Perhaps it's a hint by the author that because his control metal is damaged, it gives it a twisted and deformed element in the arrangement of features on his face.
Even the dent on the control metal on his forehead is replicated on this action figure if you take a close look. Talk about attention to details and manga accuracy.

The ultra high frequency blades on Guyver II are different from that of Guyver I, even though they both only have one blade.Guyver I's blades are almost straight while Guyver II's are curved. It's little details like these that makes every Guyver unique in the anime and all these are captured and replicated in the toy figures.
Guyver II is very poseable, as is the norm in this toy series. Intelligently placed points of articulation allows you to re-enact battle scenes straight from the manga and anime. You would think that with so many points of articulation the action figure will be one ugly fellow but no. All joints are carefully hidden and don't bother you visually at all.

Guyver II can still be found on Amazon most of the time. I have personally sold him for 60 pounds shipped before but that was in 2001. Prices have gone up since then due to the rarity of this series and the high quality of the figures. Most people think only to get the Guyvers I and III because they thought they only needed the good guys. But after awhile they may realise that they need a worthy adversary to go along and then start looking for Guyver II.
